ReadyToManage Consulting Services

ReadyToManage offers a variety of services to assist clients in implementing diagnostic assessments, surveys, performance management improvements, 360 assessments and feedback sessions, customizing and delivering training... and much more.  Here are a few of our most common services.

Assessment Implementations and 180/360 Degree Feedback Support

We can help you select and administer any of our assessments as self-assessments, 180 degree assessments or even 360 degree assessments. Whether you are looking for an assessment as a pre-training exercise, or want to use one of our assessments as part of your Management Development program, we can provide the necessary expertise to guide you through best practices in using these powerful tools.

In addition, many organizations ask us to provide a skilled and experienced organizational consultant from our team, with a background in psychology, to provide feedback from these instruments to individual participants in a one-on-one, confidential discussion meeting (either on Skype or over the phone).  These ReadyToManage assessment support consultants are not only highly knowledgeable in management and leadership development in general but are also subject-matter experts in the whole range of assessment products offered by ReadyToManage. This includes personality instruments such as the PTI, style instruments such as the Emotional Intelligence Style indicator and competency instruments, such as the Management Effectiveness and Leadership Effectiveness Profiles (which offer 180 and 360-degree feedback options in the questionnaire). Our consultants will “walk” the participant through the report, page-by-page, so that the information is slowly and carefully understood and absorbed.

Customize Training Materials

ReadyToManage products such as storyboard posters, job-aids, mini-kits and full kit packages with trainer notes are available in an increasingly wide range of subject areas and titles. However, many of our clients have expressed the wish to use our broad methodology but in an entirely customized way. Our highly experienced instructional designers can assist you by:

  • Updating an existing training program that needs a new focus or a fresh look and perspective.
  • Converting a procedure or standard into a colorful and interesting presentation package.
  • Representing a business plan or strategy or vision for the future in summary learning format.
  • Building an entirely new course after talking to a wide range of stakeholders about what they see as ‘best practice’ in the area.

We can even help you deliver the workshop, or utilize the train-the-trainer model to prepare your staff to deliver the training. 

Deliver Training Workshops

Sometimes the most cost-efficient and expedient way to have training delivered is to contract with our training experts.  We specialize in leadership and management topics and can delivery effective training to learners ranging from executive teams to aspiring supervisors and managers. 

Enterprise Pulse™ - Employee and Customer Surveys

Using our Enterprise Pulse™ Survey tools, we can customize and delivery surveys ranging from Training Needs Surveys, Customer Satisfaction Surveys, Climate and Culture Surveys, Strategy, Safety, Ethics, and more.  Because of our flexible tools, we can provide these services quickly and cost-effectively and provide you with powerful insight into your business, employees, and customers.

Interview Generator™ - Custom Selection Interview Guides and Training

Our Selection Specialists can assist you in developing comprehensive job-related, defensible, competency-based Interview Guides for any of your job classifications or positions.  Using our powerful Interview Generator™ engine, we start with identifying the essential competencies for the position and work with you to develop the custom Interview Guide.  Interview Generator™ allows you to select, design, and customize job-related behavioral interviews, based on core competencies, target behaviors and structured interview questions.  We can also deliver comprehensive workshops to your team on developing their Interviewing  skills. 

RESULTS Coaching™

The RESULTS Coaching™ model, used by the Worldwide Center for Organizational Development (WCOD) and the Warner Results Coaching organization on an international basis for over 10 years now, was evolved to enable managers and executives at all levels to be coached on a more structured basis, with the key advantage being that the model is deliberately designed to overcome the shortfalls that can occur when using the popular but limited “GROW” coaching model.  Unlike many other progressive coaching processes, the RESULTS Coaching™ system is designed to provide session-by-session discussion “scaffolding” and to be action-focused at every step. It also allows both the coach and the person being coached to build and implement a strong forward plan, which is change-oriented and has the maximum chance of really sticking.  Contact us at info@readytomanage.com for more information on this program.

Talent Spotters™

The Talent Spotters system is a highly cost-effective process which combines access to many learning resources in the ReadyToManage Webstore with one-to-one support coaching over a six month period as individuals are undertaking their learning journey.

Each individual is initially given a targeted diagnostic system including a personality type assessment (the PTI) and two deep competency assessments (the Management Effectiveness Profile and the Leadership Effectiveness Profile). This process generates a tailored development pathway for the individual to subsequently undertake, which includes further detailed assessments, structured downloadable reading resources and self-paced e-learning modules, all supported by expert coaching.

Janus Performance Management System Implementation

Many organizations are looking to overhaul their Performance Management practices to make them more effective and productive to the organization.  Our Janus Performance Management System is a major, fully integrated paper-based and online resource package for any individual that is looking to get more out of the process and to achieve better long term results-for themselves, the team and the organization of which they are a part as a whole. Janus includes a self-, 180-degree and 360-degree feedback assessment system that is tailored to each individual's required competencies (drawn from an extensive library of 36 competencies that are described within the Janus system).
